Chapter 71
Claire’s tone dripped with mockery and contempt, Instantly making Amber see reil.
“Claire, why do you act so close to Sienna Shut up.” Amber formed as she wondered, “How dare she? What right does she have to so close to Sie?
Amber completely ignored Claire’s words, but the moment she heard Claire’s tone to address Senna, her blood boiled
Claire sneered,
“Sienna said we are friends. It’s none of your business, Amber Sienna had my back yesterday and even praised me to my face”
Amber clenched her teeth, her eyes blazing with fury.
“Amber, if it weren’t for Sienna, I wouldn’t even bother with a moron like you. Here’s a friendly tip. Don’t let her play you for a sucker. You’re so dense,” Claire warned.
Claire turned to leave after speaking, but Amber strode over and blocked her path. “Hold it right there. What exactly do you mean by that?”
Yesterday, when Claire saw Mis tear up that letter, suspicion arose. Aher overhearing their conversation, everything clicked. Claire instantly understood what was really going on.
Claire looked at Amber. Amber was very cute, with pretty eyes tinged with gentle anger. Her lips were plump and inviting
Without
it any makeup, Amber was incredibly beautiful. Although she had short hair, it only enhanced her charm.
Amber’s puffed–up, angry–cute expression unexpectedly tugged at Claire’s heartstrings. “Damnit Claire cursed inwardly, finding herself unable to deliver the scathing remarks she’d planned.
Claire began, “Amber, are you truly clueless or just playing dumb? Can’t you see Mis has been targeting you all along? That love letter was clearly meant to humiliate you
“And those people who blocked you yesterday? They’re all her close friends. Don’t tell me you really believe it was just a coincidence?”
Amber froze for a moment, caught off guard. ‘Is Claire really implying that Mia has set me up? No way. Mia is my best friend. We’re really close friends. No way. Mia would never do that to me, she thought.
“Claire, cut the crap with your discord–sowing. Don’t think I don’t see what you’re up to. You’re just bitter about yesterday’s beating, so now you’re trying to ruin my friendship with Mia? Well, I’m not buying it, so give it up with that, Amber stormed off
Claire thought, ‘I’ve never met a girl this hopelessly dense, dumber than a brick. Anyone with hall a brain could have figured it out. She really thinks I’m the one trying to come between her and Mia?
‘Ruin their friendship? As if I have nothing better to do. Ungrateful brat. Can’t even tell who’s really on her side. What an idiot.
daway.
“Idiot, if it wasn’t her doing, then why was your name on that love letter?” Claire snapped. With that, she also turned on her heel and walked a
Amber slowed her steps. Yesterday, the letter had been snatched away in the chaos, but she’d managed to grab it back. Her eyes skimmed over it, and there was Amber’s name, written clearly on the envelope.
‘Why would Mia write my name? Wasn’t Mia supposed to confess to Adrian? By all rights, the letter should’ve had her name on it, not mine, Amber wondered.
Amber puzzled over it all class but couldn’t figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
At a coffee shop near the school gate, Susap and Sienna sat across from each other at the small table.
Susan nervously sipped her coffee, nothing like her usual stern homeroom teacher self. For some reason, she couldn’t understand why Sienna made her

Sienna waved her hand dismissively, signaling Lana to leave.
Lana gave a respectful nod, opened the door, and took up her post outside,
“Susan, there’s no need for me to reintroduce myself, I’ll be direct. I understand that both your daughters applied to Fellington University overseas, but unfortunately, they were rejected for various reasons, said Sienna,
Susan was visibly shocked and a bit embarrassed. Sienna was right. For families like Susan’s, there was just no way to get into Fellington University on grades alone.
“Yes, Miss Hart.” Susan nodded.
Susan came from humble beginnings. In Vallaris, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, she was just another ordinary face. Her greatest accomplishment was landing a job as a teacher at this elite school.
But inevitably, she was stuck with the worst–performing class, the one no other teacher would take.
